Milestone
Eg in https://developer.matomo.org/guides/archiving ?
Wouldn’t need to be crazy detailed but at least start with a rough overview of how things work now, and go bit more into detail where needed just so we have it documented how we expect things to work. This might be interesting when debugging things or when someone is not clear or so.
Of course it be a bit like where do we start and where do we end… archive invalidation and archive deletions is already a big topic by itself… eg we could list when are archives deleted like
etc
An archive is being invalidated when
New tracking request comes in for a specific day
Manually invalidated
A newer archive for same day has been invalidated
etc
When an archive is deleted, it will also check for older partial done flags and delete them as well etc.
Could also document what is a Partial DONE, what is an OK done flag.
Also need to document how to trigger a rearchive for a specific plugin (and maybe a specific report).
That we search for all archives when trying to find a report, etc.
The new archive_invalidations table and when something is written in there and being processed (eg the flags)
any differences now between browser and cli archiving?
etc
